Here is simple explanation of this unit of Magnetic strength, named after the great Doctor T himself.
PS it even has and audio file with it.
My new favorate site to play at.
>>Tesla is a unit of magnetic field.
Another unit of magnetic field is a gauss.
A refrigerator magnet is 100 gauss, a strong refrigerator magnet.
The typical strength of the Earth's magnetic field at its surface is around a half a gauss.
So those are everyday units of magnetic fields.
There are 10,000 gauss in one tesla.<<
Gauss:
>> The gauss, abbreviated as G or Gs, is the cgs unit of measurement of a magnetic field B, which is also known as the "magnetic flux density" or the "magnetic induction". It is named after German mathematician and physicist Carl Friedrich Gauss. One gauss is defined as one maxwell per square centimeter. The cgs system has been formally superseded by the SIsystem, which uses the tesla (T) as the unit for B. One gauss equals 1×10−4 tesla (100 μT) (1 T = 10000 G).<<

Maxwell:
>>
The maxwell, abbreviated as Mx, is the compound derived CGS unit of magnetic flux. The unit was previously called a line. The unit name honours James Clerk Maxwell, who presented the unified theory of electromagnetism, and was established by the IEC in 1930.
1 maxwell = 1 gauss × cm2 = 10−8 weber
The weber is the related SI unit.
In a magnetic field of strength one gauss, one maxwell is the total flux across a surface of one square centimetre perpendicular to the field.<<
In physics, the weber /ˈveɪbər/[1] (symbol: Wb) is the SI unit of magnetic flux. A flux density of one Wb/m2 (one weber per square metre) is one tesla.
The weber is named after the German physicistWilhelm Eduard Weber (1804–1891).
(And at last we get to something measurable)
The weber may be defined in terms ofFaraday's law, which relates a changingmagnetic flux through a loop to theelectric fieldaround the loop. A change in flux of one weber persecond will induce an electromotive force of one volt (produce an electric potential difference of one volt across two open-circuited terminals).
Officially,
Weber (unit of magnetic flux) — The weber is the magnetic flux that, linking a circuit of one turn, would produce in it an electromotive force of 1 volt if it were reduced to zero at a uniform rate in 1 second.[2]
Weber (unit of magnetic flux) — The weber is the magnetic flux that, linking a circuit of one turn, would produce in it an electromotive force of 1 volt if it were reduced to zero at a uniform rate in 1 second.[2]
The weber is commonly expressed in a multitude of other units:
where:
Wb = weber,
Wb = weber,
V = volt,
T = tesla,
J = joule,
m = meter,
s = second,
A = ampere,
Mx = maxwell.
